"All Those Things That Seems To Oppose Your Goals Are Actually The Raw Materials for Achieving Them"

I just heard this saying.
"All those things that seems to oppose your goals are actually the raw material for achieving them."
I remember when i opened up my business years ago, i had a lot of trouble with the business. Even though it was making money, it didn't return as much money as i think it would. The problem was that I worked so hard yet there was little reward for my effort.

I thought they were not much money in the business. Eventually i worked for someone else (still am) and closed down the business. Having listen and heard about successful people, i now think i was wrong. If someone else is in the same business and making an extraordinary amount of money - then there was something wrong with the way i handle the business or didn't have the business fundamentals.

Simply put, I didn't have the right attitude. I see so many people that are in business that seems like there is not enough money in it, yet they become wildly successful in it. For example, one of my client who is a taxi-driver is a multi-millionaire.

Now i know what the problem i had before, i learn how to achieve my goals. The best way to learn is by your mistakes and by modeling someone much better than you.
